Metabolic Calculations Purpose Estimate energy expenditure during steady state exercise Importance of Metabolic Calculations • It is imperative that the exercise physiologist is able to interpret test results and estimate energy expenditure. • Optimizing exercise protocols. • Exercise prescription. • Weight loss. Metabolic Calculations (S=Speed in m/min; G= % Grade) MODE Horizonal + Vertical + Rest • Walking VO2 = (0.1• S) + (1.8 • S • G) + 3.5 • Running VO2 = (0.2• S) + (0.9 • S • G) + 3.5 • Cycle VO2 = 1.8 (work rate) + 3.5 + 3.5 Body Weight (kgs) • Arm VO2 = 3 (Work Rate) + 3.5 Body Weight (kgs) • Stepping VO2 = (0.2• f) + (1.33 • 1.8 • h • f) + 3.5 CARRY OUT EACH STEP TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES Monark Cycle Work Rate: Resistance X Revs/min x 6m/rev Monark Arm Work Rate: Resistance X Revs/min x 2.4m/rev • • • • • • • • 1L= 1000 mL 1kg= 2.2 lbs 1mph= 26.8 mmin-1 1 MET = 3.5 mLkg-1min-1 1 W= 6 kgmmin-1 1 in = 0.0254m=2.54 cm Pace: min/mile to mph = 60/time Ex: 7.5 min/mile / 60 min/hr = 8mph • Kcal/min = METS * 3.5 * BW 200 • 1L O2min-1 = 5 kcalmin-1 • 1 lb of fat= 3500kcal Metabolic Calculations (S=Speed; G=Grade) • Walking (most accurate from 1.9-3.7 mph) – VO2 = (0.1• S) + (1.8 • S • G) + 3.5 • Treadmill and Outdoor Running (for speeds > 5 mph) – VO2 = (0.2• S) + (0.9 • S • G) + 3.5 • Leg Ergometry – VO2 = 1.8 (work rate)/(BM) + 3.5 + 3.5 • Arm Ergometry – VO2 = 3 (Work Rate)/(BM) + 3.5 • Stepping – VO2 = (0.2• F) + (1.33 • 1.8 • H • f) + 3.5 CARRY OUT EACH STEP TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES Assumptions and Limitations • Measured VO2 is highly reproducible at a given steady state workload. Failure to achieve steady state is an overestimation of VO2. • Accuracy of equations is unaffected by most environmental conditions such as heat and cold. • However, variables that change mechanical efficiency (gait abnormalities, wind, snow or sand) result in a loss of accuracy. • Assumption that ergometers are calibrated and no holding on to hand rails occur during on treadmill.
